Skin's fine. The redness just conveys the heat/intenity.
Besides, welding like that I imagine he has a bit of a tan and sandy eyes....I hope his eyes are closed and he's just tacking something.

I also was hoping he reguraly wore a welding mask. Looks good though.

I love this shot!!! LOVE it. The tones are awesome, the composition is compelling. I could stare at it all day. Reminds me of my dad.

Brilliant work - I really liked the Cathode Surgeon as well but this series is phenomenal! Keep up the great work, your knack for environmental portraits is inspiring.

TFS, and look forward to the next images.

Thanks alot guys, your feedback means the world to me, thanks, and yes he always wears his protective gear, I was lucky enough to catch him in a moment when he just took it off and decided to do that slightest bit of welding with his eyes closed that lasted for like 30 sec. or something, but he always protected
